North woods Maine
I am just back from a weeked hunt - 7 members of the Vanderbilt club went north again this year after grouse and woodcock. Great time and accomodations at Chandler lakes camp.
Challenging hunting as all leaves were still up - we hit the Peak - and we had 78 degrees weather to hunt in. no wind - very hard on the dogs - extremely poor scenting conditions.
We all scratched a few birds spent some time fishing too. Highly recommended site for all.
I carried my trusted 20 gauge DH - 0 frame - 28inch. Took a nice grouse and a few woodcock.
the season begins ........
